Chapter 191 Ulterior Motives

Holding a luxurious gift box, Alfred handed it to Arielle with a smile. “Ms. Arielle, Ms. Actonward has

prepared this gown for you. Since Mrs. Southall isn’t at home, she said she was worried that you didn’t

prepare one. Hence, she took the liberty of doing so.”

Arielle raised her eyebrow slightly.

Since when did Yvette become so kind as to prepare a gown for me? It must be a trap. I had better be

more vigilant.

However, Arielle didn’t reveal her true emotions. Instead, she received the box with a smile and even

opened it in front of Alfred.

“Wow! It’s beautiful!” Arielle exclaimed.

Alfred’s eyes were filled with disdain.

Mrs. Southall even claimed that Arielle was as sly as a fox. But now, isn’t she just an innocent and vain

little girl?

Hiding his contempt, Alfred replied with a smile, “It’s good that you like it. If you wear this gown to Ms.

Actonward’s birthday party, she will definitely be delighted.”

Arielle nodded. “Don’t worry. I will not disappoint Yvette. In that case, let me try it on, and I will wear it to

the birthday party.”

Alfred acknowledged, “That’s wonderful. After all, it would be rude if you didn’t wear the gown she

prepared for you. Anyway, please go ahead and try it on. Feel free to let me know if you have any

problems.”

“Alright. Thanks, Alfred.”

“Don’t mention it. It’s the least I can do.” Alfred left, smiling.

Arielle maintained the wide grin on her face until Alfred was out of sight.

Closing the door behind him with a frosty gaze, she laughed at herself in a self-deprecating manner.

At this rate, I’ll get an award for Best Actress.

Turning back into her bedroom, she carefully opened the box Yvette had presented her.

Inside, there was a gown, a pair of heels, and some accessories. Everything she needed was there.

Arielle examined the items carefully and even used a special method to test the material. Strangely,

she didn’t find anything wrong with them.

After trying them on, she verified that the gown and shoes fitted without any problems at all.

Can it be that Yvette didn’t sabotage the items and sincerely prepared them for me?

With the gown on, Arielle twirled herself in the mirror. It was a black-themed gown where the back and

collarbone portions were covered with lace. It looked gorgeous and dignified, just like a charming black

swan in the middle of a lake.

The gown was gorgeous regardless of whichever angle one looked at it.

If she wore the gown to Yvette’s birthday party, she would undoubtedly be the focus of everyone’s

attention.

It was just that… Is she really that kind?

Arielle dispelled that thought at once.

After all, no one would want to be outshone on their own birthday.

Therefore, something was definitely amiss, just that she had yet to discover what.

What could it possibly be?

As time flew by, a car arrived at the monastery entrance.

Shandie, who had been told of the news by Louisa, was eagerly waiting there. Finally, she saw the car

arrive at sunset. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

With her luggage in tow, Shandie headed toward the car.

Suddenly, a hand appeared out of nowhere and stopped her.

As Shandie lifted her gaze, her eyes met with Cindy’s worried expression.

The moment Shandie saw Cindy, she asked coldly, “What do you want?”

“Shandie! Where are you going?” Holding Shandie back, Cindy anxiously asked, “Why didn’t you tell

me that you are going out?”

Henrick had called Louisa directly. Hence, Cindy wasn’t aware.

Furthermore, Shandie had lost all trust in Cindy. Therefore, she too didn’t inform her.

Nevertheless, Cindy’s intuition told her that wherever Shandie was going, it was definitely not a good

idea to do so.
